Review: As Christmas draws near, the pressure is on for our favourite Santa Claus (aka Scott Calvin a Canadian Toy Maker). With Mrs Claus due any moment, Scott asks his parents in-law to come and be supportive so he can balance the most important time of the year with the impending birth of their baby. But Jack Frost has been up to mischief and is looking to take over from Santa through the escape clause. A magical movie for all, children and adults will enjoy the antics of Tim Allen & his magical friends but the splendor that is the North Pole. There is no better time of the year to enjoy this magical adventure with the whole family.
What is the Holiday Season really about? It is about family, friends and loved ones coming together. Its a time to celebrate and give thanks for all of the wonderful joys the year has brought and a time to look forward to what the new year will bring. So how is it that all of our good intentions end up as head aches, back aches and belly aches? How do we maintain our Christmas Spirit?
Make Your Lists & Check Them Twice
Just do it, make lists, lots and lots of lists. One for who gets gifts, who gets cards, when you have to mail them and what exactly are you buying at the grocery store in the morning.Writing out a good list before you go to bed can help you sleep soundly.
Do Not Overspend!
Baked goods, cards, a nice ornament, a bottle of wine, these are great gifts. Remember it is about spirit and reconnecting with people, not sweaters and perfume. In many cases, a few thoughtful words inside a well picked card is enough to show you care.
Let It Snow, Let It Snow, Let It Snow
Find a way to get to the snow if you can. Even if you live somewhere sunny, your local theme park may have snow or sometimes even an outdoor mall. It gets everyone in the spirit.
Go Green
Doesn't our Earth deserve a holiday as well? If you buy a live tree you can plant it in the yard after Christmas is over. What a great lesson to teach your children about giving back to the earth. Wrap gifts to family and friends in your children's art work, it saves paper and puts to use all those stacks of unbridled inspiration you have laying about.
Who has been Nice?
Remind your kids that if they listen, behave and try to be helpful Santa will bring them most of the things on their list. Remember to keep track! Write your own letter to Santa and let them see it.You can include all the chores they do around the house and good deeds they perform! You will be surprised how much they want to help.
Get Cooking!
Take some time to make real gingerbread men and let your kids or friends decorate them as they like.Then, thread them with ribbon (make sure you make a hole for that BEFORE you bake them) and hang them on the tree. Gingerbread men make wonderful Christmas decorations, but be warned, they may disappear from your tree pretty fast.
Count Your Blessings
The most important gifts are the ones we already have. Play the "What are you thankful for?" game at family gatherings or just tell that special someone what brings you joy.You might feel silly for a minute but you will see how quickly everyone present is laughing and truly connecting.
Create Traditions
If you have multiple generations at a gathering tell the stories of the past and allow a new generation to hear them.You may have heard all about Aunt Jenny's stint with the traveling circus but your children haven't and it might change their perspective.
Volunteer
Taking a day with or without your family to donate time or something you baked at home to a local church or shelter makes a big difference. Call and find out how you can help, a little goes a long way.
Relax and Enjoy Yourself
Whatever that means to you and your family, whether its singing songs around the piano, cozying up to a warm fire with hot cocoa or just kicking back and enjoying your favorite holiday DVD, the important thing is that you take the time to relax and enjoy this Christmas season together.
